Thrush

Has anyone found that their partner has triggered thrush for them? I have never had thrush before meeting my partner but I have been with him for 4 years and have been getting thrush all the time. We have both treated ourselves but I keep getting it. I am not diabetic or on hormonal birth control and only wear cotton knickers and make sure I clean with warm water after sex.

Yes.

Are you showering straight after & have you tried sticking with condoms to prevent it?

@IAmHereForTheFood Hi, I don't shower but I do clean the area with warm water, do you think showering would help more? I find that using condoms irritates me and can actually cause me to get thrush!
